Lyrics

Got my wallet stolen in London

Experienced the theft of my wallet while in London

You were the first person I told

You were the first person I shared this incident with

I'm terrified of getting married

Expressing fear or anxiety about the idea of getting married

Mostly I'm just scared of getting old, mmm

Primarily scared of the aging process

You said you want a house in the country

You expressed a desire for a rural house, contrasting with the speaker's uncertainty

I don't know what I want just yet

Uncertain about personal desires and aspirations

But you're the only person who knows what to say when I'm on my period

You're the only person who understands and supports during difficult times, such as menstruation

You make me laugh til I cry

Your presence makes me laugh to the point of tears

You've done that so many times that I could die

Your ability to make me laugh has been so intense that it feels overwhelming

Right here

Expressing an intense emotional experience at the moment

In your arms

Feeling secure and comforted in your embrace

Over and over

Repetition emphasizes the intensity and duration of the emotional experience


Been on my own for a few days

Spent some time alone recently, expecting it to be enjoyable

I thought that it would be fun

Anticipation did not match the reality; realization of the lack of fun

To have some solitude in a city where I don't really know anyone

Sought solitude in a city where the speaker lacks significant connections

But all it's done

Resulted in confronting a fear of missing out on experiences

Is make me face that I have fear of missing out on nothing

Specifically fears missing out on nothing, emphasizing the fear itself

On nothing

Reiteration of the fear of missing out on nothing

And all I'm missing is you

The only thing missed is you, suggesting a strong emotional connection

Oh all I'm missing is you

Repetition emphasizes the sentiment of missing you

Oh all I'm missing is you

Further repetition to underscore the central theme of longing


Mmmm

Expression of a sound, possibly indicating a contemplative or emotional state
